I can't believe it has been so long since I last posted on my blog. There is so much that has happened in the last year or so since my last post. Here is an update:<br />
<br />
February 2013 - 5th Anniversary Trip to Hawaii! We decided to spend a few days of our Anniversary trip in Oahu and then a few days in Maui. We went hiking, snorkeling, surfing, ate at great restaurants, and just relaxed. It was a great trip and we can't wait to go back!<br />
<br />
March 2013 - We celebrated my grandparents 50th Wedding Anniversary with a black tie party at the Center Club. It was so much fun to get dressed up and celebrate 50 years of love. <br />
<br />
I attended a few concerts in 2013 - Kesha/ Pitbull concert with my Bestie at the Hollywood Bowl. It was more fun that I thought it would be. One Direction concert at the Staples Center with my little sister, Chloe and her best friend Britney. This was my sister's first concert and she had a great time. Taylor Swift concert at the Staples Center with Chloe, Britney and Aly.<br />
<br />
Jared and I spent the day in Venice Beach where Jared was able to pick up his Google Glasses. It was fun walking along the beach, riding bikes on the beach, seeing the street performers, and playing games on the pier. <br />
<br />
July 2013 - We got to go to England with my family for almost 2 weeks. It was such a fun trip! We were able to see the Tower of London, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park, Piccadilly Circus, Windsor Castle, The Crown Jewels, Stonehenge, and The Roman Baths. We rode the Underground everywhere, saw Les Miserables, ate yummy English food, walked around a lot, rode the London Eye, met up with a friend of my brothers that was living there for school, and lots of shopping. We had a lot of fun exploring this city and I really want to plan another trip there to see so much more!<br />
<br />
October 2013 - Jared and I bought a house! After searching for about 2 years, we finally found the house for us. It is a cute 3 bedroom home in Placentia, CA and we love it! We are still working on getting everything put together and making it our own but things are coming together great! Once I am done with more of it I will do another post with pictures.<br />
<br />
Another fun thing that happened in October, I went to Mickey's Halloween Time for the first time with my Bestie Friend, Andrea. It was so much fun to walk around Disneyland collecting tons of candy, seeing all the fun costumes and riding the fun rides. <br />
<br />
November 2013 - We made a huge announcement... We are expecting a baby June 17, 2014. We are so excited! We have been waiting for this moment for a long time and I still can't believe that we are going to be parents!<br />
<br />
December 2013 - Jared and I made the announcement to our family and friends, through a cake, that we are expecting a baby girl!!!! Her name will be Caitlyn Marie and we can't wait to meet her!<br />
<br />
March 2014 - Jared and I decided to take a Babymoon to San Diego. We stayed at the Paradise Point Resort and Spa. Our room looked right out at Mission Bay. There were fire pits all around the property so we had bonfires a few times while we were there. We went to the beach, kayaked around Mission Bay, went the Old Town San Diego, went to the San Diego Zoo, went to the San Diego Temple, ate yummy food, got massages, and just relaxed. It was a great vacation before baby girl comes.

For Jared's birthday we decided to take a small trip. I was having a hard time trying to figure out where to go and came across The Newport Coast Villas. These are amazing two bedroom mini apartments across from Crystal Cove. Why did we want a second room when it was just the two of us?? Well, we asked our good friends Mike, Katie and their 2 year-old son Cayden to join us for one of the nights. </div>

On Jared's actual birthday we decided to head over to Balboa and rent some kayaks. We had so much fun paddling around Balboa Island looking at all of the homes and the gorgeous boats. While we were paddling there was a fish that jumped out of the water right in front of me. We loved every minute of it and next time I think we are going to try the paddle boarding. After the kayaking we walked around the Balboa Fun Zone and got some ice cream. For some reason whenever we go on vacation we find a local candy store and buy a ton of candy. I don't know why but that is slowly becoming a family tradition. We then went back to the hotel and got ready for dinner. I found us a nice little steak restaurant in Corona del Mar and we had a nice dinner together to celebrate Jared's birthday. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The next day Mike, Katie and Cayden came to the hotel. We spent the day riding a group bike around Balboa and then spending time at the hotel pool. The pool was a great way to cool off after a super hot day. We got ready for dinner and had a yummy dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Ruby's. After dinner we walked around the beach that Jared and I took our engagement pictures at. It is this little secluded beach in Laguna. Unfortunately, it was really dark by the time we got there and the tide was really high, so we didn't stay too long. Our night ended with more laughs, games and having a great time with friends.</div>

A friend in my ward had an adorable baby girl, so of course I had to make a baby blanket. I was getting tired of using pink (I know, weird coming from me) but, I thought that baby Quin would like a blue blanket. </div>

Jared has been working so hard the past few weeks making some major updates to his main app. So we decided to take a much needed vacation. We have a lot of things coming up this month, so we only really had a few days to take a vacation. We found a really nice hotel in Dana Point called The St. Regis Monarch Resort. It was gorgeous! The hotel had a beautiful pool and its own little beach. On our second day at the resort we took the little tram to the beach. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't that great so we didn't stay too long but it was still a really nice beach. Later that night after dinner we found the secluded beach in Laguna Beach where we took our engagement pictures. It was such an amazing few days. I can't wait for another mini vacation.</div>

I am so happy to say that I have started making baby blankets again! It's been a long time since I made a baby blanket. Things have been just so crazy with us moving from Nona's house and into an apartment. I was invited to our friend Stacy's baby shower and I thought this would be great time to make a blanket. I went to my favorite fabric store in Anaheim and immediately found this adorable watermelon pink and bright green fabric. I am so happy with the finished product!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-33364125044819349512012-05-25T11:37:00.005-07:002012-05-25T11:37:50.564-07:00Mother's Day<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mother's Day was great! My parents had a big BBQ at their house. We had my family and Jared's family there. It was great for us to have everyone there so we didnt have to family-hop from house to house. For Mother's Day my mom asked for a picture of all of us kids. Below is one of the pictures we took for her. </div>

We love him so much and couldn't imagine our life without him. He is so much fun and has such a cute little personality.<br /><br />For his birthday we decided to take him to the beach. He had a lot of fun running around and meeting new dogs. Unfortunatly, we had a small incident while at the beach. Jared had Stitch on his leash walking him around and these two big dogs started walking all over our stuff. We didn't care because I am sure they were just smelling the puppy treats that we had in our bag. One of the dogs came up to Stitch and they started sniffing each other. Then out of nowhere this dog attacked Stitch and pinned him down with his mounth twice! We were so mad! Jared got mad at his owner and told the guy to put his dog on a leash. The guys chewed Jared out and said that Stitch was the aggressive one and that it was our fault by having him on a leash because he can't protect himself. I was really confused about that. I thought it was a good thing to have the dog on a leash and Stitch is nothing but sweet and playful. About 1 minute after the guys chewed Jared out his dog attacked another small dog, but this time it chased the puppy down the beach and I think actually bit the dog. It was horrible. Some guy pushed the mean dog away and totally cussed the owner out. After this Stitch was a little scared for a little bit but after a while he was himself again. <br /><br />Other than this incident, our beach trip was a lot of fun. Our good friend Katie and her little boy Cayden came to the beach with us. We all had a lot of fun!! Stitch loved Cayden! He loved following him around the beach and seeing all the things he was doing. Again, Stitch did not like the ocean. Maybe another time, but honestly I don't think he will ever like the ocean.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-39362309142515917852012-04-10T21:48:00.002-07:002012-04-10T21:57:23.498-07:00New ChapterMarch 31st was my last day working at Taylor-Dunn Corporation (my families company). I am so grateful for everything I have learned and the great experiences that I have gotten while working for my family. The reason I quit working is because Jared's business is going so well, he needs some administrative help, and my grandparents need some administrative help. Jared and I have been talking about purchasing a home this year and starting a family, so I want to get some life things in order before we start these large things in life.<br /><br />I am so excited to start this next chapter in our lives. Also, it is so great to be spending my day with my husband at home and not having to get up super early anymore. Its been great!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-4265303865642884032012-04-10T21:27:00.003-07:002012-04-10T21:38:14.415-07:00Happy Birthday Chloe!My baby sister turned 12 years old on March 31st.

It was so amazing!!! I have never done something like this before and it was so much fun. When we were driving to meet up with our group I still didn't know what we were doing. We met our group in a grocery store parking lot so when we arrived I was really confused. Then he FINALLY told me what we were doing. I was so excited!!! He was going to do this to propose to me but decided to take me to the beach instead. Actually, it was a good thing he didn't propose because Jared is a little afraid of heights. Our pilot was great and landed us in the correct spot. When we landed our basket tipped over so that was a little scary, but still a great time. Below are some pictures from our adventure.</div><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QgOeDRt3WB4/T4UC8aBdIoI/AAAAAAAABlE/H7dON7ivLTs/s1600/IMG_0336.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729989337699656322" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QgOeDRt3WB4/T4UC8aBdIoI/AAAAAAAABlE/H7dON7ivLTs/s320/IMG_0336.JPG" /></a>Waiting for our balloon.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dy66WI6VuhQ/T4UC8IyH_ZI/AAAAAAAABk4/6teF9U2_7c0/s1600/IMG_0340.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729989333071953298" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dy66WI6VuhQ/T4UC8IyH_ZI/AAAAAAAABk4/6teF9U2_7c0/s320/IMG_0340.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Bm-aVXM3_E4/T4UC7nVpQqI/AAAAAAAABkw/I0vAcgyTvwQ/s1600/IMG_0341.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729989324094128802" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Bm-aVXM3_E4/T4UC7nVpQqI/AAAAAAAABkw/I0vAcgyTvwQ/s320/IMG_0341.JPG" /></a>Beautiful view of San Diego<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sRXsQ4mgxsA/T4UC7W1EkgI/AAAAAAAABkk/HNdyN_5IMwM/s1600/IMG_0342.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729989319662539266" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sRXsQ4mgxsA/T4UC7W1EkgI/AAAAAAAABkk/HNdyN_5IMwM/s320/IMG_0342.JPG" /></a>Another beautiful view.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Z6vCV3e4QcI/T4UCYOGBoGI/AAAAAAAABkY/-7wyRnwPW2E/s1600/IMG_0345.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729988716022308962" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Z6vCV3e4QcI/T4UCYOGBoGI/AAAAAAAABkY/-7wyRnwPW2E/s320/IMG_0345.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BNdjjzuGYGM/T4UCXqEASAI/AAAAAAAABkM/wgr1K3fKUmw/s1600/IMG_0347.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729988706350155778" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BNdjjzuGYGM/T4UCXqEASAI/AAAAAAAABkM/wgr1K3fKUmw/s320/IMG_0347.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-O5oBh4hphY8/T4UCXCa7vyI/AAAAAAAABkA/Ph7eELopCXg/s1600/IMG_0350.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729988695708909346" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-O5oBh4hphY8/T4UCXCa7vyI/AAAAAAAABkA/Ph7eELopCXg/s320/IMG_0350.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q5hG4xnZcsg/T4UCVwubVkI/AAAAAAAABj0/UVcMgnZaAwk/s1600/IMG_0351.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729988673778964034" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q5hG4xnZcsg/T4UCVwubVkI/AAAAAAAABj0/UVcMgnZaAwk/s320/IMG_0351.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-UXWN3REriZo/T4UCVQPKhoI/AAAAAAAABjo/EN-V3c3ZyUc/s1600/IMG_0353.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729988665057904258" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-UXWN3REriZo/T4UCVQPKhoI/AAAAAAAABjo/EN-V3c3ZyUc/s320/IMG_0353.JPG" /></a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-52819512519876311242012-04-10T20:45:00.005-07:002012-04-10T20:57:09.324-07:00Anniversary - Sea WorldAs part of our anniversary weekend, we spent one of our days at Sea World.

It just seems like the past few months have been so crazy and I haven't really taken any pictures over the holidays. I thought I would sit and update on the past few months up to Valentine's Day and our Anniversary.<br /><br />November:<br />-I turned 25 this past November. I used to be really excited about my birthdays but this was the first year that I was dreading my birthday. I know 25 isn't old but I just wasn't excited that day. For my birthday dinners we went to Hibatchi. I love this restaurant so that made things better.<br /><br />-Right after my birthday we had Thanksgiving. The holidays are always a busy time for us because we split the family time up since we all live very close to each other. We spent some time with both families and had a great time. I love the holidays and spending time with family. I am very grateful that we live so close so we can see our families often.<br /><br />December:<br />This is always a busy month for everyone. Thankfully I wasn't making large blankets for everyone this year. However for Christmas I made my little sister a really cute pencil skirt. She loves it! This was Stitch's first Christmas and I think he really enjoyed all the attention and gifts that he got (puppy treats and toys). He is such a spoiled dog but we love him. He did very well with the Christmas tree, although he kept peeing under the tree. I think he was confused about having a tree inside the house. Hopefully next Christmas he will be a little better.<br /><br />-We got tickets to see Wicked at the Pantages theater. My little sister has never see the show and so she was able to come with us and bring a friend. This was my 3rd time seeing the play and I love it more every time I see it. It was a lot of fun to spend time with my sister, Grandma and Aunt Amanda in LA.<br /><br />We had a Rummler Family Christmas party before Christmas. Jared's Aunts and Uncles came over to his parents house. We had a yummy dinner and did a white elephant exchange. Jared's brother Sean also recieved his mission call and opened it in front of everyone. He is going to the Sapporo, Japan mission and he is leaving this April. We are all so excited for him to serve this wonderful mission in Japan.<br /><br />-Christmas was a lot of fun and crazy as usual. Also having it land on a Sunday didnt help out the craziness either. We went the the Rummler's house in the morning and watched the little kids open their presents, then we went to Sacrament with them. After Sacrament we stopped by Nona's house to exchange gifts and wish her a Merry Christmas. We then raced home to change and head over to my parents house for gifts. I was so happy to have my little brother home for Christmas. We exchanged gifts and opened our stockings, then headed over to my grandparents house for more gifts, food and family. It was and always is a busy crazy day but we love it and we love seeing everyone.<br /><br />Hopefully I will start being better at pictures and posting.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-19272158957061162482011-11-25T18:58:00.001-08:002011-11-25T19:04:42.970-08:00First ProjectI am obsessed with pinterest.com!

We took Stitch in the pool with us and it took him a while to actually enjoy it. Our good friends, Mike and Katie, along with little Cayden came over to spend the day. Stitch loved Cayden and spent time with him on his little pool floaty. After a fun time in the pool we BBQed hamburgers, played some pool and roasted marshmallows. Such a fun day!<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KC1cgBX1T50/TqSURdUlsMI/AAAAAAAABec/V3gWjf5aewc/s1600/IMG_0241.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5666817258788597954" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KC1cgBX1T50/TqSURdUlsMI/AAAAAAAABec/V3gWjf5aewc/s320/IMG_0241.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hv4rW4Ydql0/TqSURM4D9YI/AAAAAAAABeM/L5uv2BHio9k/s1600/IMG_0240.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5666817254373979522" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hv4rW4Ydql0/TqSURM4D9YI/AAAAAAAABeM/L5uv2BHio9k/s320/IMG_0240.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5tDbSocAayA/TqSUQeOc5XI/AAAAAAAABeE/jqO4OFEKsuk/s1600/IMG_0239.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5666817241851422066" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5tDbSocAayA/TqSUQeOc5XI/AAAAAAAABeE/jqO4OFEKsuk/s320/IMG_0239.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HKM8Ogktihw/TqSUQMVa01I/AAAAAAAABd0/L_Aj6we-cJg/s1600/IMG_0238.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5666817237048808274" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HKM8Ogktihw/TqSUQMVa01I/AAAAAAAABd0/L_Aj6we-cJg/s320/IMG_0238.JPG" /></a></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-52803889635397664932011-10-23T15:06:00.000-07:002011-10-23T15:22:06.722-07:00Stitch Goes to the Beach<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RiwrcuSvzs8/TqSRQ30LvRI/AAAAAAAABdo/58WRQZEIp0g/s1600/IMG_0237.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5666813950185684242" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RiwrcuSvzs8/TqSRQ30LvRI/AAAAAAAABdo/58WRQZEIp0g/s320/IMG_0237.JPG" /></a>A while ago Jared and I took Stitch to the beach for the first time. He loved running in the sand and meeting all the other dogs. He made some friends with two other yorkie puppies, Grizzly and Bear. It was so cute watching them run and play. However, he wanted nothing to do with the ocean. Jared tried to take him in, and Stitch ran straight into my lap and wouldn't leave.<br /><br /><div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-39821930302327237372011-09-03T18:22:00.000-07:002011-09-03T18:33:47.920-07:00Palm Springs TripA few weeks ago, Jared and I went to Palm Springs for the weekend. We went to visit my brother for his birthday. We were only able to see him on Sunday, so on Saturday we decided to take the Aerial Tram up the mountain. It was such a beautiful view and sooo much cooler. We did a nice little nature walk and just had a great time.

I love him so much and I am so proud of him for all that he is doing to better his life. It was so good to see him after a little over a month and it was great to see such a big difference in him, not just physical. I love him so much and I can't wait until he comes back home.</div></div></div></div></div></div>

He was a very lucky guy that weekend. For breakfast one day I made him Coffee Cake. For dinner one night I made him one of his favorite dinners, Empinada's (see my other blog for the reciepe). For his birthday dinner we went, with Jared's family, to his favorite pizza place, Naples, in Downtown Disney. After dinner we all went back to our apartment for cake. I wanted to make a special cake for Jared's birthday. Every year I make him a cake, and this year I wanted to make something special that he wouldn't expect. All of you know that Jared works for himself making apps for the Android market, so I thought I would make a cake around that.

It was a lot of fun going on a cruise (I love them!). Sadly, I was really bad with taking pictures so I don't have that many. Below are a few of the pictures that I did take.
<br />
<br />First day on the ship Jared and I each got massages. OMG! It was one of the best massages I have ever had. I got the Seaweed wrap. This is where they put this seaweed paste on your body then wrap you up to let it sink into your pours, you wash it off, then they wrap you again to sweat all the toxins out of your body, then you get a full body massage. I have had these before and I loved them, however, this time I added the floatation bed. It felt like I was lying on a table then I was submerged and was floating on this water bed. If you ever get the chance to do this and are not claustrophobic, then defiately do this!
<br />
<br />Since there are issues in Mazatlan, we staying in Cabo San Lucas for two days. It was a blast! We had originally signed up to do a snorkel tour but they had a ton of jelly fish, so we all voted to just take a water taxi to another beach and relax. Both days we just layed on the beach and played in the water. I wish the water in California was a nice as the water in Cabo. If it was, I would actually go in it.

<br />
<br /><div>After Cabo San Lucas, we were in Puerto Vallarta. Jared, Sean, Micah and I went on a Canopy Tour, while Dad, Mom, Kelsea and Jake went on a Pirate Ship Adventure. (Pictures from our Canopy tour in a seperate post.) The Canopy Tour was a lot of fun. However, the day after I had over 80 mosquito bites on my legs. I looked like I had the chicken pox. They itched so bad, so for the rest of the trip (2 days) I was miserable. Thankfully, Jared's mom had Vicks Vapor Rub and that was AMAZING!!!! It stopped the itching and felt so good.

His name is Stitch. Stitch is a 3 month old Yorkie Terrier. We love him so much. He is such a joy in our family. He loves to play with his tiny tennis ball, his tiny rope and chew on his tiny bones. Every toy we bought had to be miniture size because he is so small. Right now he weighs in at 2.4 pounds. The vet said that he should get to be about 7-10 pounds but I honestly think he wont get more than 6 or 7.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xef5bSO-TbY/TiZsNM2YxuI/AAAAAAAABXo/XhIJoBC8Rq4/s1600/IMG_0153.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631307358116824802" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xef5bSO-TbY/TiZsNM2YxuI/AAAAAAAABXo/XhIJoBC8Rq4/s320/IMG_0153.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-P5L_vBZMeGI/TiZsM20120I/AAAAAAAABXg/3N83QipL3BA/s1600/IMG_0150.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631307352204761922" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-P5L_vBZMeGI/TiZsM20120I/AAAAAAAABXg/3N83QipL3BA/s320/IMG_0150.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-swODKfhehm0/TiZsMsI3D9I/AAAAAAAABXY/LaZAfAgCYGE/s1600/IMG_0178.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631307349335936978" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-swODKfhehm0/TiZsMsI3D9I/AAAAAAAABXY/LaZAfAgCYGE/s320/IMG_0178.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8Y75SzzSygw/TiZsMLUqTuI/AAAAAAAABXQ/RfSA4d2R7Hk/s1600/IMG_0181.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631307340527062754" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8Y75SzzSygw/TiZsMLUqTuI/AAAAAAAABXQ/RfSA4d2R7Hk/s320/IMG_0181.JPG" /></a></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953920529602838098.post-25341185510179231422011-07-19T22:41:00.000-07:002011-07-19T22:46:25.533-07:00Old Friends<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mgb-fycumpU/TiZqoSGMqDI/AAAAAAAABXI/KNxhENwNU28/s1600/IMG_0086.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631305624358529074" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mgb-fycumpU/TiZqoSGMqDI/AAAAAAAABXI/KNxhENwNU28/s320/IMG_0086.JPG" /></a> This is my friend Ashley. We were best friends in elementary school. After elementary school, Ashley and her family moved to Missouri. We haven't seen each other in about 12 years. She came down and we got to spend some time together at Disneyland. It was great to see her again and catch up on old times.<br /><br /><div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
